What is wrong with men?
Posted: 2/27/2009 9:48:59 AM
some women do want to date older men - all a matter of preference

if you don't like it, change your mail settings and state in your profile that you do not wish to correspond with men over ___ age

that should do it

but they're going to try because they like the look of you, i'd guess

take it as a compliment rather than insult, i'm sure they mean it that way

...you've made your return...and as anticipated...


Yeah, so??? What... I need your permission to be here? Think again. I'm not like your ex-wife who let's a big-mouthed ass - - - control my actions. Why don't you piss-off?


...you missed the point.


I actually didn't...I know about the experiments and how he conditioned the dogs to act a certain way...blah...blah...blah...meaning you think I'm here only because you conditioned me to react the way you wanted me to. Ever think...I'm doing the exact same thing to you?

Tell me Einstein, if you're so damn brilliant, then explain to me why you couldn't even figure out a way to keep your wife and kids?

My favs always end up getting deleted - like that one last night about sex vs love and the one about self-sucking not too long ago. That was some good entertainment!

What is Wrong with some Men and Some Women
Posted: 2/27/2009 10:48:21 AM
^^^^^ Note this subject line. Some men and some women just don't know when to give it a rest. It speaks volumes as to why people may have relationship problems of any kind, whether it be women with women friends, men with men friends, woman/man relationships, etc. I would suggest to both of you that, given the age you both are, you are stepping closer to falling into the same category (if not already there) of the OP....ie. Obnoxious Pissants. How about you start a new thread together on Pavlov's Theory to continue the childish behaviour. It's rather unbecoming at this stage and detracts from any possible valid points you have to make on the subject at hand or any we may find you in on any other thread. Going off topic to lighten a thread when it becomes incredibly redundant at page 20 something is one thing, but to show yourself in this light, especially if you are here in the hopes of attracting someone as a date/partner/friend isn't doing yourselves any favours. If you have relationship problems, re-read everything you both have posted. It's one thing to debate a point, but a pissing match for supremacy is an entirely different matter. The types of comments you both make are uncalled for and you should be ashmed of yourselves.

Lonestar, if you want to believe that it's okay for old men to date women young enough to be their daughters...by all means...go ahead. Who the hell is stopping you!

No one is stopping me. In fact, the man I'm seeing is 16 years my senior. Now, he's not quite old enough to be my father unless it was a teenage pregnancy, but I'm sure he still meets the *dirty old man* crtieria in your mind.
Thanks for your permission, though.



When you have daughters one day...and see dirty old men making passes at them....regardless if their educated or not on how to handle them...believe me, you won't feel the same way and won't believe it's such an acceptable behavior.


I have a daughter. Granted, she's not old enough to date, and a *dirty old man* relative to her would be around the age of 10, but the fact is, you have no clue how I'll feel. The OP is in her TWENTIES. She's an adult. Men in their fourties are adults. And the fact that you view adults showing interest in other adults with the same distaste others have for pedophilia is fairly disturbing. Like I said, most women my age seem to have moved past the *old men are gross* stage. Apparently, you haven't matured to that point.


I'm not going to get into this with you because you have a long way to go before you understand my point.


You don't HAVE a point. Your entire argument is based on your opinion - you think the situation is *yucky.* Pardon me if I don't see that as sound argument.

Yes, your daughter thinks it's *yucky* as well, but did she ever even have a chance to feel differently? Your strong opinion on the matter leads me to believe that she didn't. She was raised by a woman who refers to men her own age as *dirty old men.*

For the record, it might be more beneficial for you to work on expanding your own intelligence instead of demonizing people who use choose to use their brains.

Yes balloon-girl...I will seriously consider taking parenting lessons from you.
If you didn't understand my point ...or didn't even SEE a point to what I expressed here....I think that maybe I'm not the one who needs to sharpen my intellect...n'est ce pas?

^^

I see that quite a few of the 'older' people on this thread are doing a good job of proving that 'age' does not always equal 'emotional maturity'.

I recall 'debates' on this level back when I was in grade school..EARLY grade school... like grade 3 or 4..

"hah! you are, but what am I", etc.

referring to the fact that someone may be separated or divorced as 'evidence' that they are messed up..? really now..puh-lease!

I mean really, do try to grow up a little! must be millions of really messed up people by your so called 'logic' ? (using the term very loosely..)

POF requires someone to have attained the physical or chronological age of 18 to sue the site

too bad there's no way of requiring a commensurate level of emotional age/maturity

in my view, lonestarstar comes across as more mature than you do, faith6186..sorry to say.

Back to the original topic..

There are a LOT of women out there who use their "looks" and "sexuality" to get by in life.

And there are a lot of men who think if they have a lot of money they will attract women like that.

Geee.....someone get me my glass pipe.....I'm not given up the crack!

Now if I comment on the rant.....uhhhh...will I get flamed too?



If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague!


or as I've said before:The anonymity of the internet allows us to abandon all social grace and sense of civility, and it is this anonymity that tears down all decent boundaries that we may have had.

lonestarstar seems you practice what you preach! Nice profile for a little grad student....shows humor, style, and grace....uhhhh...unlike some others...

Get rid of all your pics and just use your 6th photo there. I'm sure that will take care of it for you.

God of Rock: Great post and very true in every respect.

Lonestar: Great post. You are mature beyond your years and the exact type of younger woman an older guy would love to meet. A lot of the older women on POF could take some lessons from you. Shame on you for encouraging us dirty, disgusting old men. lol.

Healthy Old Goats ROCK!!!!!!!!!! !
Posted: 2/27/2009 12:37:25 PM
and I have to ask:

why is the label 'dirty old man' considered such a slur or put-down?

I was a dirty young man (well still am, I suppose, depending on your definition)

I fully intend to blossom into becoming a dirty middle-aged man

AND, eventually, a dirty old man!!

in the sense that I don't think I'll ever lose my appreciation for beautiful women

who is anyone to tell me I must restrict my appreciation to a certain age range?

does 'dirty' mean you are still interested in sex? I would take that as a sign of vitality and mental & physical wellness. the reverse would be a concern.

by the way I know there are many 'dirty young women' and dirty old women' around as well

good for them!!

posters, thanks for your comments above

I concur..lonestartstar rocks this place!

Vvvvvvvv


"healthy old goat"


haha Edsta thanks for that phrase..I like it..I think we should officially retire the phrase "D.O.M."
and replace it with "healthy old goat" !!

^ yep, the whole phrase "dirty old man" is something that only puritan America would come up with.

In less repressed countries, they say "healthy old goat" or something like that, with a marvelling undertone.

Or as a real D.O.M. allow me to say:

Lonestar good.
Faith bad.

I did want to add everyone has their preference just as the OP and myself for that matter...However, my mom married a guy 12 yrs younger and have been happily married for 25 years so it can and does work...
